            NOTE FOR:  D/OIM

            FROM:      John.Pereira
                       Barry Harrelson

            SUBJECT:   Talking Points for Meeting
                      with  Jeremy Gunn, 3 Feb 98


            Background:   Gunn has been with the JFK Assassination
            Records Review  Board since its inception in 1994.  When the
            Board's Executive  Director resigned in the summer of 1997,
            Gunn  replaced him, but continued as General Counsel as well.
            Gunn may be  accompanied to your meeting by two of his senior
            staffers who  handle CIA matters--Michele Combs and Bob
            Skwirot.

            Suggested  Discussion Points:

            (U)  1. CIA is committed to meeting the deadline of 1
            September  1998 for completing the review of records and
            transferring  them to the Board.  Recently we shifted seven
            additional  contractor/reviewers to the JFK team, bringing
            the total  to 20.  If necessary, additional resources will be
            made available.

            (U)  2. The merger of former HRG into OIM does not create new
            impediments  to CIA's ability to respond to requests from the
            Board  and will not slow down the document review.

            (S)  3. We are looking forward to meeting the Board's
            Chairman,  Judge Tunheim on 18 February.  We have followed up
            on Tunheim's  request to obtainfom_____________
            records  and other information related to Oswald's activities
            in Mexico.   We have asked  he Mexico City Station to provide
            any  additional information by mid-February.

            (U)  4. Per the Board's request, we are sending a team of
            reviewers  to the Board on 4-6 February to review materials
            from  the Army, JCS, and Presidential Libraries. This joint
            approach  makes sense to us, and is preferable to having
            documents  circulate from agency to agency. The process seems
            to have  worked well earlier for other records.

            (U)  5. We intend to respond fully to the Board's many
            informal  and formal requests for additional information.
            (See  listing of requests, dated 18 December 1997.) However,
            to  the extent that resources are devoted to searching files
